Well, can't answer your question, Mary Ann, but it would be nice to 5000
good folks who remain signed up to have your problem <chuckle>..

However, we're curious about the list.

Secondly, something to ponder. For some of the citizens out there who are
getting placed at the "top of the list" because they are deemed "disabled",
we're wondering why it's just the "physically impared" that are getting
considerations for such, and those who are disabled "emotionally" are being
spared this great priviledge? We're sure many have PTSD (Post-Traumatic
Stress Disorder, Disabling emotional disabilities, or other phobias of
snakes, rats, etc. and are being discounted? Aren't these illnesses and
phoebias just as traumatic as a bum leg whose info is listed on their
driver's license to give creedence to their disability? Yes, disabilities
extend beyond backs, legs and arms. There could be a discrimatory law vs.
those who are discriminated against because of their psychological
disabilities. Perhaps some law professor out there can share expertise with
this policy underway. There were many who took such a psychological beating
over the past 9 months/and before who cannot be ignored or excluded.

My house on Palmetto Street was gutted out by a volunteer group over two
months ago. I notified the parish by telephone and by email that it was done
but yet it still remains on the list of houses to be gutted.
I too wonder how many on this list is finished but still remain on the list.
